Please keep discussion in this thread focused on the song. Discussions about Katy Perry's larger scale career/choices, and other artists should NOT be done here. There are plenty of other places to do so on ATRL. Thank you!

    Producer: Dr. Luke   she really wants to bury herself this era... there's no way

  • It's missing the Katy Perry touch that could turn a basic pop song into something unique.    It's giving Eurovision 

  • sorry but sounds like a Moldavia eurovision entry. It's not this song is gonna save something. 

honestly, this is amazing and would have been #1 for weeks and weeks back in 2014

People comparing this to WOA… this isn't even touching Teary Eyes. I'm not really a Katy stan but I appreciate her place in the pop world and this is easily shaping up to be her worst body of work yet. There's nothing fun or interesting about either of these songs so far or anything quintessentially Katy about them. I'm really shocked she would try to comeback like this.

:chick2:...

:psyduck:

 

 

I mean I get it if Teary Eyes is your favorite song on Smile but let's be real, Lifetimes is on another level

like honestly is she trolling us with how bad these two songs are?? :skull: :biblio:

so sarah hudson is on board on this album too i just noticed (let's hope just for this song)

Well I will take being faceless over brainless anyday :clown:

Thankfully my life doesn't revolve ATRL and I have things going on outside of here (unlike you judging from you investment in a popstar you don't like!), so no I don't remember every single post I reply to 

 

don't worry about me dear, I have the face AND the brain :heart2:

You know what's insane? If Dr. Luke had absolutely zero involvement in this project (143), then the reception for both songs ("Woman's World" and "Lifetimes") would be vastly different. Sure, people wouldn't be calling them career highlights of Katy's or anything like that, but I GUARANTEE you people would be able to bop along and hope for them to be successes while admitting they enjoy them to a fair extent, or at least until they officially flopped. But because she chose to work with him again, people are automatically dismissing any positive aspects of the actual music and hating it all from the get-go.

 

I am by no means not saying none of your criticisms are valid, but let's be real: Most of you are shallow and can't tell the difference between a fun, harmless bop and a great song unless the actual numbers are there to influence your opinion.

Sigh... I had some hope for this song but it just has like... zero flavor to it? I'm disappointed. :doc:

I just think there is so much more she could have done with this song, the memes comparing it to like a generic Love Island background track are very accurate, I'm afraid. She really should have worked with some other producers because, controversy aside, this is not her best.

Like where are the high notes? Where are the runs? Walking on Air dances circles around this song.  :chick3:

Eh, I'm sure you guys would like to believe this, but it's not 100% true. For the online girls and gays, sure; and no one denies it because, shocker, we don't support raping people. But the public, which also hates the song and didn't latch onto it, doesn't know all that much, if anything at all about Dr. Luke.

 

The song (WW) objectively is not good. It's just not.

 

These kinds of posts also ignore the context. The issue here is not just that it's produced by Dr. Luke, it's that Katy chose to work with again after having been involved in his very public rape case against a contemporary. That shows a callous disregard for human life and common decency. Some people just don't want to support that.

Whats with the Sarah Hudson hate? Half the songs she did on Witness were good. The other half were fine.

oooooooh i hope she goes full out Katy performance style :jonny3:

 

and i will just never take ppl serious regarding him how they judge Katy's music. Again, these are the same that dragged HIH, CAIL, NRO, etc etc. and are praising them nowww. It's pointless babes!

 

enjoy the music

This sounds like something Bebe Rexha would release but it's very enjoyable

When they said online that it sounded like the background song for those spoiler drag race videos they weren't lying

 :toofunny3:

But anyway i'll bop to it when it comes in shuffle or something 

When u enjoy life and u are happy u can say…
